Pot holes pop up after Saturday flood

A spokesman for the City of Houston Public Works department said residents can report new pot holes by calling 311. The city fixes on average 50,000 pot holes a year, the report said.

Council members interviewed by the station are optimistic about a city initiative to improve streets and drainage coming in the next year.

“You’re always going to have work on the street, and Houston will always have pot holes We have a chance here to improve on a lot of transportation, not just cars,” said City Council Member Melissa Ortega.
